In a statement, The Wombats‘ drummer Dan Haggis said: “There is no excuse for making money from the suffering of animals. Burberry need to stop supporting this violent industry.”

According to the statement from Peta2, The Rakes had previously been approached by the label to potentially participate in an advertising campaign. Frontman Alan Donohoe responded by writing a letter to the firm saying that “the cold-hearted killing of animals for ‘fashion’ is indefensible”.
